Nucynta - is it stronger then morphine?

No. Nucyra according to what I could find out is somewhere in between Tramadol(an opiate strenth non-opiate)& morphine. As of right now drugs that are stronger than morphine are fentanyl patches or tablets,I believe oxymorohone(Opana or Opana E.R) is also stronger. There are more I'm sure but I noticed knowbody has answered your question so I figured I'd give as much info I have about Nucyta,which was not familiar with until I did a little research. I'm a chronic pain patient but got away from the extended relief medications like M.S Contin & Fentenyl & instead just take more of immediate realease drug dilaudid because I find less side effects from Dilaudid then morphine like itching & other things. I hope this helps some. Good luck,oh by the way there is a form of hydrocodone without any other things like tylonol or ibuprofen called zo-something or other I can't remember it but it's just starting clinical trials & probably won't be available for at least a year & all these doctors are making a big deal about it claiming it's the next "super pain killer" even though hydrocodone without any "fillers" has been available in Canada forever.
